MY GOAL IS TO SEE 100 NEW (to me) MOVIES BY OCTOBER 24, 2008

New movies, old movies, made for TV, on dvd, on TV, in a theater... anything. I just want to increase my movie knowledge by 100 movies in 100 days.

Day 51, total films watched: 58

Jocks -DVD- ***
Omega Man -DVD- ****

Ahh, I love the double feature. First was Jocks a silly little comedy from the 1980s about a team of misfits that compete in a tennis championship. Solidly entertaining.

Omega Man was absolutely awesome. I had low expectations since I had recently seen I Am Legend, but this was much more enjoyable. Better lead performance and the changes to the story were for the better. Rather than just being random killing machines, the villains had some character, some meaning, something to really fear.
I also loved the visual look of the film and the score. Great stuff.
